Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for Kinetic Energy is

$KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ . Filling in:

$KE=\frac{1}{2}(1200)(20)^2$ It looks like we only need 1 significant digit here but I'll give you 2 and you can round how you want.

KE = 2.4 × 10⁵ J

A marble is dropped from rest and falls for 2.3 seconds. Find its final velocity.

juin [17]

Answer:

23 m/s downward

__________________________________________________________

Taking the downward direction as positive

We are given:

Initial velocity of the marble (u) = 0 m/s

Time interval (t) = 2.3 seconds

Final velocity (v) = x m/s

Solving for the Final velocity:

Acceleration of the Marble:

We know that gravity will make the marble accelerate at a constant acceleration of 10 m/s

Final velocity:

v = u + at [First equation of motion]

x = 0 + (10)(2.3) [replacing the given values]

x = 23 m/s

Hence, after 2.3 seconds, the marble will move at a velocity of 23 m/s in the downward direction

A lab cart with a mass of 15 kg is moving with constant velocity, v, along a straight horizontal track. A student drops a 2 kg m

lbvjy [14]

The equation $15v_{i} + 2*0 = (15 + 2)v_{f}$ (option 3) represents the horizontal momentum of a 15 kg lab cart moving with a constant velocity, v, and that continues moving after a 2 kg object is dropped into it.

The horizontal momentum is given by:

$p_{i} = p_{f}$

$m_{1}v_{1}_{i} + m_{2}v_{2}_{i} = m_{1}v_{1}_{f} + m_{2}v_{2}_{f}$

Where:

m₁: is the mass of the lab cart = 15 kg

m₂: is the mass of the object dropped = 2 kg

$v_{1}_{i}$ : is the initial velocity of the lab cart

$v_{2}_{i}$ : is the initial velocity of the object = 0 (it is dropped)

$v_{1}_{f}$ : is the final velocity of the lab cart

$v_{2}_{f}$ : is the final velocity of the object

Then, the horizontal momentum is:

$15v_{1}_{i} + 2*0 = 15v_{1}_{f} + 2v_{2}_{f}$

When the object is dropped into the lab cart, the final velocity of the lab cart and the object will be the same, so:

$15v_{1}_{i} + 2*0 = v_{f}(15 + 2)$

Therefore, the equation $15v_{i} + 2*0 = (15 + 2)v_{f}$ represents the horizontal momentum (option 3).

What are the two types of electrical circuits

uysha [10]

Series Circuit
A series circuit there is only one path for the electrons to flow (see image of series circuit). The main disadvantage of a series circuit is that if there is a break in the circuit the entire circuit is open and no current will flow. An example of a series would the the lights on many inexpensive Christmas trees. If one light goes out all of them will.

Parallel Circuit
In a parallel circuit the different parts of the electric circuit are on several different branches. There are several different paths that electrons can flow. If there is a break in one branch of the circuit electrons can still flow in other branches (see image of parallel circuit). Your home is wired in a parallel circuit so if one light bulb goes out the other will stay on.

HOPE THIS HELPS YOU MATE!!
I HAVE ALSO GIVEN THE EXPLANATION THINKING THAT IT MIGHT HELP YOU.

it takes 90 j of work to stretch a spring 0.2 m from its equilibrium position. How muc work is needed to stretch it an additiona

Vinvika [58]

Work needed: 720 J

Explanation:

The work needed to stretch a spring is equal to the elastic potential energy stored in the spring when it is stretched, which is given by

$E=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$
